This is a Jeep Liberty but the style of brakes is very common on many vehicles. This is how to change front brake pads.

Im having break light issues on 99 mustang. The third light is coming on amd all of thr fuses are good. Can you help me
The mechanic was a complete hack. He didn’t use any brake grease on the pad surfaces or apply any anti seize to the hub face to prevent the rotor from sticking to the hub. Also forgot to apply lube to the caliper pins. Also good job on rounding off the bolts, why is he using a air wrench with deep sockets. He should hand tightening then using a shallow 6 point socket on a torque wrench to tighten to factory specs.
They forgot to gease the inside of the bushings(Pins) with high temp. lubricate. Make sure you buy enough, one tube is good for just two wheels. A little lube on the anti rattle clips (they did not mention them) too.
Also measure the thickness of your rotor. Most may cast the thickness on the rotor, if not look up in manual.
Great info, I just changed my pads with this vid and it worked easily with no issues. Many thanks!

Sorry, I meant Grand Cherokee!
they haven’t made a Cherokee since 2001. I know, the factory is 10 minutes from my house.
thank u so much for loading this!
I have Jeep Cherokee 2005. I tried to change REAR pads and rotor myself and couldn’t remove the caliper mounting with my hands. Do I need to use a pry bar?
Absolutely love my Jeep, but slowly believing the acronym.

THANK YOU SIR!!!! THis has helped alot, can’t wait to change my pads. all the best
I have a 2007 liberty. The rear brakes were just as easy as the front. The only trick was angling the new pads correctly to get them to go on. I had to set the bottom hook on first, then pop the top hook down. Other than monkeying with that little detail, the job is pretty much like he showed here.
Excellent video…thank you! What is your opinion on “Disc Brake Quiet” on the back of pads?
Thank you so much, my son was changing my brakes for the first time in his life. Your video was very helpful with helping him. We Both appreciate all your work.
did not sound like he round off the caliper bolts at all
look so easy but dang no tools.
no brake grease? way to round off those caliper bolts
I thought you were suppose to turn the rotors
Thanks very informative
